How to Make Settings

1.Press [MIDI TX], getting the indicator to light.

The RD-700 is set to control the external MIDI devices.

2.Press CURSOR [ ], [ ], [ ], or [ ] to move the cursor to the parameter to be set.

You can get the cursor to move more rapidly by holding down the CURSOR button that points in the direction you want the cursor to move while you also press the CURSOR button that points in the opposite direction.

3.Press [INC/YES] or [DEC/NO] to set the value. Press [INC/YES] and [DEC/NO] simultaneously to switch the Value to “--- (OFF).”

Adjusting the Volume and Pan

Sets the panning (localizes sound image) for each of the Tones.

The Volume setting is mainly used in the Split and Layer key modes to obtain the desired balance in volume between each part.

The Pan setting positions the sound image of each part when the output is in stereo. With an increase in the value for L, more of the sound will be heard as coming from the left side. Similarly, more of the sound will originate at the right if the value of R is increased. When set to 0, the sound is heard as coming from the center.
